Welcome to Willow Grove Therapy

As a perinatal therapist, I work with people navigating pregnancy, postpartum, or parenthood—and quietly wondering, “Why is this so hard for me?” 


You may be struggling with anxiety, intrusive thoughts, depression, rage, grief, or a deep sense of disconnection from yourself or your baby. You may be processing a difficult or traumatic birth, fertility challenges, pregnancy loss, infant loss, or a NICU experience. Perhaps you look “fine” on the outside but feel overwhelmed, guilty, numb, or unlike the person you used to be. You may be high-functioning, self-aware, and exhausted from trying to hold it all together.


My expertise centers on the emotional, psychological, and relational challenges that arise during pregnancy, postpartum, and parenthood. I specialize in supporting individuals through experiences that are often misunderstood or minimized. I use evidence-based modalities such as CBT, DBT, and mindfulness, tailored to you and your unique experiences.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or not like yourself , you don’t have to figure it out alone. I invite you to reach out for support. You deserve a space to feel heard, supported, and less alone during this season of life.

I accept the following insurances:

  • BCBS/Carefirst
  • Cigna
  • Aetna
  • United Healthcare

As a mom, I understand the importance of having emotional support during pregnancy, postpartum, and motherhood. Through my personal and professional experiences, I discovered a passion for working with women and mothers. 


I have a Master degree in Clinical Social Work from University of Maryland, School of Social Work. I am licensed in the State of Maryland as a Licensed Certified Social Worker-Clinical (LCSW-C). I'm a Certified Perinatal Mental Health professional (PMH-C) through Postpartum Support International.
